Lot presentation
Cuvée des Roys Duval-Leroy 1986
The wine
Cuvée des Roys is a complex, powerful Brut champagne. Its aromas are reminiscent of white fruit and citrus fruits; notes of vanilla and hazelnut are also present. The mouth has perfect balance and attractive freshness, culminating in a long, pleasant finish.
About the Producer Duval-Leroy
Founded in 1859, this trading maison established in the Côte des Blancs in Vertus has remained family led. Run by Carol Duval, for twenty years she has not stopped raising her standards and shows rather surprising qualitative ambition. The very broad range innovates regularly (as with the Lady Rose, to be paired with desserts), and one can count on the constantly improving quality of the Brut Fleur de Champagne and the very interesting single-plot cuvées, done with considerable accuracy and authenticity.
